Happy Water Colour returns

This is another of my fav stamp sets, well to be fair I love most of stampin up's stamps sets lol.  Now this is a great card if like me you'd rather stroke and admire your nice 12 x 12 papers instead of using them as it only uses  a very small piece.

Here's the card;

see only a very tiny bit of paper.

I have used;
Happy Water colour stamp set
Water colour wonder papers
Decorative dots embossing folder
Whisper white card
Basic black ink
Tangerine Tango card
Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set
Word window punch
Modern label punch

Start with a C6 (A5 folded in half) card base in Tangerine Tango

Cut two pieces of whisper white card measuring 14.4cm x 10 cm. Emboss one of them with the decorative dots embossing folder and leave the other plain.

Glue the embossed piece to the front of your base card and the plain piece to the inside of your base card

Cut a piece of water colour wonder paper 5cm x 11.4cm, a piece of white 5.7cm x 12.1cm and a piece of tangerine tango 6.4cm x 12.2cm.

Stamp the poppy from the Happy watercolour set onto your water colour wonder paper in basic black ink.

Layer this up onto the white and tangerine tango card you cut earlier.

Add this to the front of your base card with foam pads

Happy Water Colour Tag

Following on from yesterdays post I thought I'd make a matching tag to go with the card, it's very simple and very quick to make.

You will need;
Scalloped Tag Punch
Happy Water Colour stamp set
Whisper White card
Coastal Cabana card and ink
Basic black ink

Cut a piece of Coastal Cabana card 2" x 5 1/2" and a piece of whisper white 1 3/4" x 5"

Punch both pieces of card using the scalloped tag punch

On the Whisper white piece stamp out the image of the poppy in basic balck then over stamp it with the paint stamp in Coastal cabana ink going down along your poppy without re-inking each time so that the paint mark gradually fades.

Glue your stamped image to your coastal cabana punched tag and add some coastal cabana ribbon

See told you it was quick and easy, if you'd like any of the products that I've used to make this then please click on the pictures below which will take you directly to my shop.

Happy Water Colour

Hello dear readers, I hope today finds you well.

Today's card uses the Happy water colour stamp set from the new spring mini catalogue.

Here's the card we're going to make;

The sentiment you see come in with the Happy water colour set.

You will need;
Happy water colour stamp set
Coastal cabana ink and card
Basic black ink

Take an A4 piece of coastal cabana card and cut it in half along the long side (at 14.9cm) This should leave you with two pieces measuring 14.9 x 21 cm.

Take one of these and fold it in half creating a C6 card base

Take a piece of whisper white card and cut two pieces measuring 14.4 x 10 cm.

Take another piece of Coastal cabana and cut two pieces measuring 13.9 x 9.5cm and another whisper white and cut two pieces measuring 13.4 x 9cm.

Take one piece of white 14.4 x 10cm, coastal cabana 13.9 x 9.5 cm and white 13.4 x 9 cm and matt and layer these together and add to the inside of your base card.

On the piece of whisper white measuring 13.4 x 9 cm that you have left, stamp out one of the flowers from the happy water colour set in basic black ink.

Over stamp your image with the paint mark in coastal cabana ink, work your way down your image.  Do not re-ink your stamp as you want the paint mark to gradually fade.

Ad your sentiment to the bottom right hand corner of you card.

Now matt and layer this onto your remaining coastal cabana and whisper white card and add to the front of your base card.
